Now That You Mention It...

I wouldn't have thought of it this way, but this actually makes a lot of sense:

When I think of this Eagles season, I think there are two plays that took place that have a lot to do with the Eagles being where they are.  They probably aren't the plays you are thinking of either.

First, is Shayne Graham's missed 47-yard field goal at the end of overtime to get the Eagles a tie with the Bengals.  Who was happy about that when it happened? ...  But, if he makes that, the Eagles don't get into the playoffs.  The tie ended up getting them in.

Second is Kevin Kolb's pick-six to Ed Reed against Baltimore.  "But Micah, how did that help anything?  What a dumb play to pick.  You are just being stupid."  Well, that may be, but if Kolb throws a TD there, who knows if McNabb gets the start against Arizona?
